25. Why SPA FOODS ?

26. The current concerns over diet and health are causing many of us to think more carefully on our approach to food. An essential part of our diet is protein. SPA Foods utilises soy as its protein source. Offering adequate amounts of quality protein and containing no saturated fat or cholesterol it is kind to your heart and contains all the essential amino acids we require. Soy protein offers many other benefits to health. Clinical trials indicate it may play an instrumental role in protection from some diseases, including several forms of cancer.

27. Another critical issue in the development of SPA Foods was to maintain a delicious taste and texture. Creating a health food requires that only natural ingredients are used with no additional “taste enhancers” to boost flavour. By careful selection of ingredients and paying particular attention to production techniques our clever R&D department achieved this difficult challenge. Delicious food is essential to the enjoyment of life, it also serves another important purpose…

28. For pleasure: Dining is a sensory experience. At first you smell the wonderful aromas of food and your mouth waters in anticipation; next the sight of beautifully presented food heightens these senses. Finally tasting the delicious flavours and textures completes your enjoyment. For health In addition to being a pleasurable experience, anticipation serves an important purpose by preparing your digestive system for processing food. An inefficient digestive system will not convey adequately the important nutrients that your body requires.
